Stockholm, one of the most beautiful capitals in the world, is built on 14 islands connected by 57 bridges. The beautiful buildings, the greenery, the fresh air and the proximity to the water are distinctive traits of this city.

Stockholm is a major international city with great shopping, quality eateries in abundance, cool and trendy hotels, an internationally renowned club and music scene and a vibrant cultural life.

Where Stockholm comes into its own, however, is its sheer natural beauty. The Stockholm archipelago starts more or less in the centre of Stockholm so you are never far from the sea.
